Functional Activity: Inhibits apoptosis in anti-CD3 stimulated Jurkat T-cells ( 0.5 ~ 5 µg/mL) suitable. Excellent for neutralization. Flow cytometry: 1 x 106 H9 T-cells stained with 1 µg/mL antibody, followed by biotinylated goat anti-mouse IgG and streptavidin-PE. Immunocytochemistry Suggested starting dilution is >1:100 The optimal dilution for a specific application should be determined by the researcher.

Target
FASL
(Fas Ligand (TNF Superfamily, Member 6) (FASL))
Fas (CD95/APO-1) Ligand (FasL) is a 43 kDa type II membrane protein and member of the tumor necrosis factor family. Human FasL can be released from cells as a 26 kDa soluble protein upon cleavage by metalloproteinases. FasL is expressed on various cells including T cells, NK cells, Monocytes, Sertoli cells and tumor cells. Interaction of FasL with its receptor triggers rapid apoptosis. FasL-induced apoptosis is involved in T cell receptor/anti-CD3 induced cell death, cytotoxic T cell activity, maintainence of immune privilege, immune escape of tumor cells and viral hepatitis. Malfunction of the Fas system causes hyperplasia.
